Tony Hawk’s Project 8 (360)
More goals and stuff today, including some Classic goals, and also opening up the Factory area. I’ve bumped my rank up to 98 now too, but sadly, no achievement for 100.

Viva Pinata (360)
Went on a bit of a selling spree today, as my garden was full again. Sold all my Squazzils (I had some left, it seems), most of my remaining Flutterscotches (except a yellow one which it doesn’t give me the option of selling), and then set about getting a Master Romancer award for Whirlms and Bunnycombs. After that I sold most of them too, and started breeding Newtgats.
Tony Hawk’s Project 8 (360)
Forced myself into actually doing some missions, challenges, spot tricks, goals and other things in order to actually progress through the game. It’s amazing how much time you can spend just doing tricks for no reason. I’ve managed to rank up to 113 now. I’m hoping you get an achievement for getting to 100, as I haven’t scored many gamerpoints yet. Opened up The School and The Slums areas of the map too.
Small Arms (Demo) (360)
Hmm. I don’t think I’ll be “buying” the full version of this. It’s just Super Smash Brothers only with guns, and without the fun, characters, or charm. I played a couple of games, didn’t really see the appeal, and turned it off.
Defender (360)
Only a brief couple of goes on this while I waited for Small Arms to download. Only managed to get as far as wave 2, and scraped together a rather feeble 8,500-ish points. I’m so crap at this game.
Viva Pinata (360)
MATING FRENZY! Well, sort of. I mated a load of Squazzils and some Lickatoads, and then made a start on selling my Jameleons, Squazzils and Candaries. I need the space for the Lickatoad population explosion I’m expecting to create. Also decided to try and coax some more Bunnycombs and Whirlms back in, as I haven’t got the Master Romancer award for either of those, even though I’ve bred them a billion times each. Tamed my first Crowla today too! That …
Tony Hawk’s Project 8 (360)
Right. I forced myself to actually get stuck in properly, and not spend hour after hour just doing random tricks to bump up my stats. So I’ve impressed a few pros (Daewon Song’s “missions” being the best), and have done loads of the graffiti challenges, and some other things too. Sadly, I’m not up to Sick status yet, and have managed to get Sick on just one challenge. Bah. No doubt this will be resolved as by stats improve. I …
Tony Hawk’s Project 8 (360)
Doomed. I’m doomed. Completely. If having Viva Pinata wasn’t addiction enough, having not one but two new Tony Hawk games (and a third is out on the Wii in less than three weeks) is just going to cause me to apply for treatment in a clinic somewhere. So I put this on. Two hours later, I was still completely ignoring most of the goals and missions, and was instead just messing around, and doing that Tony Hawk favourite: “Take Your …
Viva Pinata (360)
Gnngh! Super Addiction Fighter II Turbo! Right, Bunnycombs are now gone. I wanted to breed Pretztails, and I thought it best to get rid of them all before they were eaten. Having sold them all, I then sold my Buzzlegums and Mothdrops to make some space. However, I don’t have everything needed to breed Pretztails, so a change of plan was in order. I evolved some Sparrowmints into Candaries, then bred about 15 of them. I also made some Squazzils …
Viva Pinata (360)
#Viva Pinata! Filled with fun! (Filled with fun!) says the theme tune. And it’s jammed in my head like a pokey thing jammed into a thing that pokey things get jammed into. Gah! So I managed to breed ten billion Bunnycombs today, and even fed one a pumpkin and found it made it turn yellow! Yellow Bunnycombs are BEST. I also hired quite a bit of help – someone to water things and someone to harvest things. The problem with …
Cars (Demo) (360)
Ahaha. I have no idea why I even downloaded this, let alone played it. I knew it was going to be pants. In fact, it wasn’t awful, it was just a pretty simple racing game. Nothing special.
Rainbox Six: Vegas (Demo) (360)
Yeah, I know I said I wasn’t going to play this again, but it’s a different demo. This one is multiplayer only, and makes the whole game seem about a billion times better. The mode I played was some kind of Attack and Defend thing. My team had to defend a briefcase from being stolen by the other team. We played about 6 rounds, winning roughly half each. It was just really good fun, and has made me wonder about …
Viva Pinata (360)
I’ve decided to keep my pinata species count down to just three: Whirlms, Bunnycombs and Mothdrops. None of them seem especially vicious towards any of the others (although there were a few fights today, and even some between two Bunnycombs), and the garden was much easier to manage as a result. I still had to watch out for Pretztails on the prowl for my Bunnycombs, but since they usually appear at night, and I now have a Bunnycomb house, that …
Superman Returns (Demo) (360)
Oh my. This has to be one of the worst games I’ve played in a long time. The graphics are awful. Like, PS1 quality for the most part – especially close up to walls and things. Buildings are out of proportion with the characters, as one “floor” of a tall building appears to be just half as tall as Superman. So I did a couple of the required tasks, fighting with the stupid flying controls as much as the baddies, …
